Kate will be showing visitors on the Honda stand how to make safe refuges and nesting habitats for bees on the Tuesday and Friday of the show. Visitors are encouraged to visit the stand throughout the day to meet Kate and get involved to watch and learn how to construct them at home.

Kate said, "I'm delighted to be working with Honda to help spread the word about bees and other pollinators. In my workshops, visitors will learn about the wonderful world of solitary bees and how to use and manage a bee hotel. Plus lots more about our precious pollinators."

In addition, Honda Lawn & Garden will be giving away bee bombs to visitors who take part in the workshops. These are packed with the seeds of nectar producing flowers that have been carefully selected to benefit bees.

Steve Morris, head of Power Products for Honda (UK) commented, “We’re delighted to have Kate with us to provide an interactive and educational element to our stand. If you’re visiting the Show on the Tuesday or Friday please stop by and get involved.

“For those visiting on the other days, our stand is open throughout the show and you will be able to take a look at Honda’s extensive range of garden machinery including our pedestrian and Miimo robotic lawnmowers. We will also have our friendly Honda Lawn & Garden experts on hand to offer advice and answer any questions visitors may have.”

The RHS Hampton Court Flower Show runs from 2 to 7 July 2019.
